| Milforum's Bouncer | He was the commanding oficer of the 11th Cavalry, the 39th commanding officer of the regiment. It was the same unit his father had led in North Africa. wildgun1.com www.arlingtoncemetery.net/gspatton.htm |

| Milforum's Bouncer | Legend tells that the French strongholds were named after the lovers of Dien Bien Phu commander Christian de Castries. In fact, they were only an alphabetical sequence of denominations: Anne-Marie, Beatrice, C_____, Dominique, Eliane, Francoise, Gabrielle, Huguette, Isabelle. DeCastries' command post was located near the "C" position. What was that "girl's" name? |

| Centurion | Umm, is this what you meant? As far as I can tell, you are asking: The first action against US forces was an attack against 4 aircraft. What kind of A/C were they, what was the mission, and when did it occur? |

| Optio | Very good, thankyou for articulating that better than I had. Forgive me I was tired. It was not the first action taken against US forces but it was the first aircraft to be ingaged. |
